Terms and Conditions for Video Poker Bonuses
Most casinos you encounter almost always have a signup bonus ranging from 50% to 400% but the standard bonus is around 100%. If you look further and read the terms and conditions for most of these casino bonuses you’ll discover that many casinos restrict video poker play completely while others make the wagering count for less than the standard wagering. There are even some that restrict specific video poker games like Jacks or Better because of bonus abuse from advantage players.
The reality is most players don’t bother to read the terms and conditions of any casino and the bonuses in particular. If you did read them, you’d learn very quickly if you can play video poker for the signup bonus and know how much you need to wager before you can withdraw if you happen to with as well. Some casinos won’t actually restrict you from wagering on video poker even if it is not allowed, the end result if you end up winning is that your winnings can be voided and that can spoil if you happened to have hit a big win. Thankfully we aim to cover the video poker bonuses and help spell out the terms and conditions so you don’t have to go through the daunting task of reading them.

Tips for reading promotional terms and conditions for online casinos
Do you really need tips for such a thing? Yes as you need to ensure you are not violating the terms and conditions. Keep in mind most, if not all casinos, will void winnings if you have violated their promotional terms and conditions for a video poker bonus, or any casino bonus for that matter.
- Play at only reputable casinos
- Use the search function on the page of the promotional terms
- Check with livechat to ensure you have fulfilled wagering requirements before cashout
1. Play at Trusted Casinos
Not all casinos can be trusted, some unethical casinos will not pay you out even if you have rightfully won with a bonus or even without. If a casino has a history of not paying players on time or simply stealing their money, avoid at all costs.
2. Use search functions on the terms page
If you hit control + F when viewing the page of the casino, you can search to see if that page has any particular term on it. So some searches you might want to look for are “poker”, “video”, “video poker” or “videopoker”. If the page talks about it, you’ll find it quickly without having to read an entire document.
Tip: Just ask livechat, they should be able to tell you right away if video poker is allowed or not for bonus play.
3. Use livechat
Most casinos should have livechat, at least the good ones do. Livechat agents should be able to both tell you if video poker is an allowed game for a signup bonus and tell you too how much you’ll need to wager. Best of all if you are playing, before you make a withdrawal, ask livechat if you have completed the wagering requirements. Unless you are counting every single wager and amount you have bet, you might not know and some casinos will flat out void a cashout if you have withdrawn before completing the wagering rather than give you a chance to continue to wager. Don’t make this costly mistake at all.
